Act like a Car Drivers are used to the patterns of other drivers. Don’t weave in and out of traffic. The more predictably you ride, the safer you are. Check for traffic. Be aware of traffic around you.

Stay Visible If drivers can see you, they are less likely to hit you. Use lights when biking at night or in low-light conditions.

Don’t Get Distracted Don’t listen to music or talk on the phone while riding.

Look, Signal & Look Again Use hand signals to let drivers and other bicyclists know where you’re going. Look and make eye contact. Don’t assume drivers will stop.
